Merge commit '755d9301ca89f02956fd17858b9d4d821ab5c972' from the
vendor branch. This updates us from lua 5.4.2 to 5.4.4.
In addition, it switches around how we flavor liblua for the boot loader
and flua. This is done to reduce diffs with upstream and make it easier
to import new versions (the current method has too many conflicts to
resolve by hand): we include luaconf.local.h from luaconf.h (the only
change to this file is now that #include at the end). We then define
what we need to: for flua (which does very little) and one for stand
(which creates the new FLOAT type out of int64).

We don't support float in the boot loaders, so don't include
interfaces for float or double in systems headers. In addition, take
the unusual step of spiking double and float to prevent any more
accidental seepage.
We need to ensure that we defined Numbers as int64_t everywhere we
build for lua. Previously, we were compiling part of the code with
Numbers as int64_t and part as double. Move lua number definition to a
more-central location
liblua glues the lua run time into the boot loader. It implements all
the runtime routines that lua expects. In addition, it has a few
standard 'C' headers that nueter various aspects of the LUA build that
are too specific to lua to be in libsa. Many refinements from the
original code to improve implementation and the number of included lua
libraries. Use int64_t for lua_Number. Have "/boot/lua" be the default
module path. Numerous cleanups from the original GSoC project,
including hacking libsa to allow lua to be built with only one change
outside luaconf.h.
Add the final bit of lua glue to bring in liblua and plug into the
multiple interpreter framework, previously committed.
Add LOADER_LUA option, currently off by default.
Presently, this is an experimental option. One must opt-in to using
this by defining WITH_LOADER_LUA and WITHOUT_FORTH. It's been
lightly tested, so keep a backup copy of your old loader handy.
The menu code, coming in the next commit, hasn't been exhaustively
tested. A LUA boot loader is 60k larger than a FORTH one, which is
80k larger than a no-interpreter one. Subtle changes in size
may tip things past some subtle limit (the binary is ~430k now
when built with LUA). A future version may offer coexistance.
Bump FreeBSD version to 1200058 to mark the milestone.
